For sheer excitement and fun, it would be difficult to top K'NEX Thrill Rides Web Weaver Roller Coaster Building Set. With 399 K'NEX parts and pieces at hand, kids have the pleasure of immersing themselves in a prolonged build fueled by anticipatory excitement for the adrenalized action that is to come. The finished roller coaster appears dazzlingly intricate to the eye, an effect only amplified once the air-powered motorized coaster car begins its high speed, gravity-defying traversal. One of the niftiest things about the towering structure is the way the thrills can be amped up just by turning it on its side, an act that changes the car's primary trajectory from vertical to horizontal in the blink of an eye. Those tracks, by the way, glow in the dark, and the mix of illumination, spider web graphics and airboat-like coaster car speeding along is an impressive sight. The included full-color instructions are easy to follow, with instructions for a second roller coaster design available for free download on knex.com.
